| thanks for u'r reply. as far as replacing wire, ez'r said than done. completely understand, but techs who come to my house prefer to rely upon existing wiring, id one pair they can clear of problems, isolate it, just as u have suggested.
Notwitstanding, if SBC wishes to sell me video & myriad of other services delivered to a modem or router, i require ny new CAT-5 be laid to that modem or router, @ a minimum, to ensure me high reliability of that connection, particularly when it rains. Wiring in my house, is old, prone to cross-overs whenever it rains . . . & long after. It is certainly no physical layer w/which to deliver 21st century services.
U'r entitled to u'r opinion, but it's I, the customer, who will decide which carrier I will choose to provide most or all of my services @ some pt in the future. W/o improved inside wiring, I would not be amenable to video services from SBC.
But 1st things 1st. Right now, I'm 6,100 ft from the RT, the nearest fiber node, so until SBC pushes the fiber closer, this discussion in not ripe. |
